Chapter 1970: Chapter 1906: Extremely Perceptive

That man?

Meng Xinian shook his head, “I don’t know him, but he knows me. The person I encountered at the hotel is a suspect in our team’s next mission. We’ve always been unable to trace him within the country, so the previous missions were never resolved. When I saw him in the hotel, I followed him to see where he went.”

“Initially, he didn’t notice that I was tailing him, until he met that Second Master.”

“The Second Master noticed you?”

Meng Xinian nodded.

Chiang Xiao felt a bit startled, yet at the same time, it seemed inevitable.

The shock came because Meng Xinian had already drunk quite a lot of Spirit Spring Water, so his abilities were strong; he was skillful enough to hide himself and shouldn’t be easily discovered. But that Second Master spotted him right away, indicating that the person’s perception was extraordinarily keen.

Even to a terrifying degree.

At that moment, Chiang Xiao felt a sudden sense of relief, relieved that she was cautious enough when that person entered the tavern last night.

“You said he knows you? He’s from China, right?”

“Yes.”

“Have you really never met him before?”

Upon hearing Chiang Xiao ask this, Meng Xinian found it odd once more.

“I’ve always thought he looked familiar, but I just can’t recall where I’ve seen him before.”

Meng Xinian had a very good memory, especially for such a dangerous character. Even without seeing the face, his ability to recognize people was great; there’s no way he shouldn’t be able to remember.

Hearing this, Chiang Xiao also found it strange, even unimaginable.

“When you went into the tavern yesterday, he didn’t see you, did he?”

Meng Xinian was also worried about Chiang Xiao.

“No, I didn’t encounter him.”

She now felt a bit relieved that she didn’t face that person directly. She had a premonition that catching the attention of such a person would be nothing good.

As Meng Xinian was speaking, he suddenly noticed the beads on his wrist.

One on his left hand, one on his right hand, and looking at his neck, there were two hanging there.

Was Chiang Xiao trying to arm him entirely with peace charms?

He couldn’t help but feel a bit amused, raising his hands, “What’s this for?”

Chiang Xiao didn’t find it funny at all, “Since we’re in danger, how can we not be cautious? That person is still nearby; who knows if he’s left, what if we encounter him again?”

She glanced at him and said, “But you haven’t told me yet how that Peace Talisman got broken. Anyway, you must have faced off against him, right?”

Meng Xinian couldn’t defeat that man?

With his skills, there aren’t many people he can’t beat now.

Meng Xinian frowned deeply.

“It was sort of a confrontation, but not direct.” He looked at Chiang Xiao, weighing whether to tell her or not, feeling a bit hesitant because he knew she would be very worried if she knew.

Chiang Xiao was smart and knew him well. It was obvious that he was avoiding the main point, leaving something critical unsaid.

How did the Peace Talisman get broken?

If it wasn’t a direct confrontation, how did it break?

Besides that man, she couldn’t imagine anyone else who could deliver a lethal attack.

“Go ahead, if you don’t tell me, I’ll be even more worried.” Chiang Xiao put down the bowl and chopsticks, grabbed his hand and pulled the Mysterious Talisman Diagram out from the beads. “Plus, we have this talisman now, we can test later how far its effective range is.”

“What’s this?”

Meng Xinian had thought those were all Peace Talismans, but now there was something new?
